| pubmed-article:3488984 | pubmed:abstractText | New class I antigens in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-A antigen are demonstrated in PHA T and EBV preferential target cells using human alloantisera. These new antigens are defined as class I antigens by immunoprecipitation of a 41-12 k dimer. The molecule is shown to be distinct from the HLA-A, -B, -C molecule and in particular from the A3 molecule as in sequential immunoprecipitations, the depletion of the HLA-A, -B, -C molecule or A3 molecule (44-12 k) has no effect on the new molecule (41-12 k). Being present on the PHA T cells and lymphoblast lines, these antigens are considered as new epitopes involved in the the cell activation process. | lld:pubmed |
